Due to my odd sleeping patterns with my illness, I get to solve most of the daily puzzles, and I came to Virgilius after tackling The Guardian, Times and FT and I have to say I was feeling pretty deflated. I thought the Times was OK, but the other two were dull. My mood didn’t lift when I saw the grid. I hate grids with “double unches” (adjacent unchecked spaces) as it means it’s tougher to solve. This particular grid comprises 24 eight letter words (Eeach one with a double unch)and two fifteen-letter words, that’s all. However, when I saw it was a Virgilius I perked up. Good witty clues that are entertaining to solve.
